DELEGATE JOHNSON: So that, Mr. Chairman, if
the Minority was not ready to report within three days, the
Convention may not receive the Minority Report unless
the majority of the Convention agreed to hear if? Should
I repeat it?
THE PRESIDENT; Please.
DELEGATE JOHNSON: The question to the Chairman
Mr. President was, isn't it a fact that under the general
order for the day that a Minority Report may not be
received if it isn't received within the three days,
unless by action of a majority of the Convention, so that
it is possible, just possible, under the existing rules,
that the Convention would have only the Majority Report
to consider?
DELEGATE SCANLAN: It is possible under any set
of rules that if a minority didn't act when the time
permitted, the Convention would not be in a position to
consider its report at the same time. The present rules
giving specifically Rule 31 a three day delay and the point
I made earlier, at least one more day between the time
the Majority Report reaches the Committee of the Whole |
